"When I arrived, the owner of the property told me he wanted me to cancel my expedia booking and pay him cash because "he couldnt recieve the funds I paid through expedia". I submitted a request for a full refund and expedia said they need confirmation through the owner of the hostel. The hostel owner told me that he confirmed with expedia and made me pay him money before I received any sort of refund for the money I already had paid for my stay. I contacted expedia yesterday to confirm that I...

Top Guanacaste Hotel Reviews

The Westin Reserva Conchal, an All-Inclusive Golf Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful resort and staff are always wonderful. Pura Vida!"

CC Beach Front Papagayo All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent peaceful relaxing resort, of mid size (50 rooms maxi), so you really relax. So many of the staff are so kind, nice, smiling and so willing to help and make your stay more enjoyable and memorable. Pools are nice, beach is gorgeous. Not a lot of coral but saw tons of bass, sergeant fish, swordfish and even a manta ray! Some boat tours start at the beach, directly, simple to book. They have kayaks, snorkel basic things, good gym, billard, baby foot, nice tree climbing... Food is super good, thanks to Chef Christian and his entire team, and Christian really watches after everything to be good!! Yes no night shows or big animation team, and that was not at all what we looked for!! Excellent stay!!"

Planet Hollywood Costa Rica by Royalton, An Autograph Collection All-Inclusive Resort

8/10 Good

"Need more things to do at resort. Need to be able to book a reservation at each resturant without them already full of reservations. That was a waste for us because we couldn’t eat at the restaurants we wanted to. Huge dissapointment!! And we feel like we deserve a refund or complementary stay so we can try the restaurants. Staff was friendly. Need better food at buffet and for breakfast. Need somewhere to get ice cream late at night when I want a snack."

Hotel Riu Palace Costa Rica - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"The property, the rooms, the restaurants were all what we expected it t be for a resort. The staff was not only friendly, but very responsive to any and all needs that arose during our visit. The food at all of the restaurants was fresh, well prepared, and delicious. A nice bonus was being able to enjoy the food and amenities at their sister property, RUI Guanacaste. We will definitely recommend RIU Palace, and will absolutely stay there again."

Waldorf Astoria Costa Rica Punta Cacique

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful property and room! The pools are plentiful and never felt crowded—we saw a monkey! Treat yourself to an evening sunset by the lobby bar—breathtaking! The beach is ona beautiful cove. My kids enjoyed the rocky areas for “tidepooling” for hermit crabs, fish, etc. There is a nice reef right off the beach where daily snorkeling activities are available. We saw a puffer fish, some colorful tropical fish and a spotted ray. Note the beach is public, but the locals are friendly and not loud. There are no loungers down close to the ocean (a little higher up on the sand close to the property, but not many people sat there). It was a tad of an annoyance to see 9 jet skis in the cove almost everyday. They are for rental. My family did enjoy them one day, however, 2 or three would suffice. 9 surely took away from the tropical island feel and I looked forward to each evening when they disappeared. The room was luxurious and had everything you needed. We did purchase a 2 queens room with a small plunge pool—in hindsight sight we did not use it much and we noticed these pools were only on the first floors (preventing a better view). It did seem like there were only a few larger suites with a corner pool on the upper floors of buildings). The dining was pretty good. The breakfast spread at TicoTica was great and unexpected. We enjoyed Peacock Alley to watch the World Cup USA game—a great vibe. Kids enjoyed the pool with the slide and the teen room was cool. Pura Vida!"
